Summer-Like Weather Summer Stitch

The weather the past few days has seemed almost summer-like too. I've been outside without a coat or sweater or tights - just a summery polo dress. The cats and I have been loving it.

My primroses are at their peak now. I bought several "Hose in Hose"varieties from Log House plants about three years ago and they've grown and grown and grown. The deer nibble on them once in a while, but mostly leave them alone.

More primroses and pansies on the Front Porch.

Along with some small bulbs too.

The daffodils I planted in late October are blooming now.

Can't go wrong with daffs!

Usually after one year I then plant out the bulbs in a flowerbed. As you can see, if it was a 'mix', I don't even bother to separate the bulbs. I like the yellow daffodils with the blue muscari.

Daffodils, muscari, and tulips!

The north side of the house is extremely shaded. The hellebores are just now blooming in full force.

I so enjoy seeing all your flowers! This time of year, all the stores have little pots of Primroses in bloom. Their blooms don't last long enough. We have a fresh blanket of snow on the ground this morning, but I can see just the tips of the Tulips and Resurrection Lilies poking up through the ground.
